Abstract
A thermoplastic polyester, and in particular a thermoplastic polyester including at least one 1,4:3,6-dianhydro-L-iditol unit (A), at least one linear aliphatic diol unit (B), at least one aromatic dicarboxylic unit (C), the thermoplastic polyester having a reduced viscosity in solution (25° C.; phenol (50 wt. %):ortho-dichlorobenzene (50 wt. %); 5 g of polyester/L) greater than 25 mL/g. A method for preparing such a polyester, a composition including the same and the use of the thermoplastic polyester for the production of finished or semi-finished plastic articles. The thermoplastic polyester is advantageous in that it has a particularly high incorporation rate of 1,4:3,6-dianhydro-L-iditol (A) units, at least greater than 85%, and most specifically at least greater than 90%.
